I found a bug in the framework 3.5

[Mike Gleason jr Couturier]

-------------------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio 2008
Version 9.0.21022.8 RTM
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 3.5
Installed Edition: Professional
-------------------------------------

Unless someone @Microsoft tells me "this behavior is by design":

Just put an asp:Image tag without an ImageUrl attribute on a blank page of a
new project and be prepared for a mighty double postback... Plus, your
buttons handles might be screwed.

Spent too much time on this one... on a thight deadline :(

(What's annoying is that I followed a code example for the Collapse Panel
extender on the ASP.net website)

It's not a ASP.NET bug, it's how browser works....
if you do not put ImageUrl then ASP.NET generates following HTML.

<img src="">
Browser trying to resolve the image path and resolves it to the same url as
your aspx page. And then it requests an image. Hence you get second request
for the page....

PS: I recall only IE does that. FireFox does not resolve the empty src to
the page URL (or may be it's only FireFox does and IE does not).

PPS: As far as i know all versions of ASP.NET do that. Not only 3.5

That makes sense.... in fact, this behavior IS by design :D
Codeplex should take this in account in their examples :)

Thanks for your clear explanations!!
